Who Here Speaks More than One Language?
Dutch is my language, but I learned also French and English in school. I can still have small conversations in French. And my English is okay I think.

Who Here Speaks More than One Language?
English is my native tongue. Spanish a close second since my parents began us on a course of second-language Spanish study when we were toddlers. Then we lived in Spain for a time during my kindergarten-first grade school years and were immersed in it by going to Spanish schools. They made sure to speak both languages in our house, but I'm not as fluent as I wish I were in Espanol anymore because I don't get much occasion to practice it in depth.
I can speak, read, and write some very basic French, less and less every day. Again, not enough practice.
I can read Latin thanks to six years of study in it.
And then there's my amazing skill at Pig Latin. That's a tongue I really shine in.[SIZE=\"4\"]\"That best portion of a good man\'s life: his little, nameless, unremembered acts of kindness and love.\"[/SIZE]

Holland is mijn geboorteland. Ik spreek veel van het niet omdat ik nu in Canada leef.
I speak Dutch with my close family still, but not often. Only when my younger cousins are around and have no frickin clue what we're saying.
I've been in Canada for 10 years though now, and I learned both languages in Holland while living there. Both languages are used very often around there.

I never knew Holland was your native country, NoChowder, or Dutch your native tongue. You're so facile in English that I just naturally assumed you were a lifelong Canadian. I'm impressed!

Ik kan spreek een beetje nederlands ook, maar engels is mijn moeder taal. Het is een heel moeilijk taal om te leeren, de vooral grammatica. Er zijn alleen twee landen in de wereld waar dit taal is nuttig, Nederlands en Neerlands Antilles.
I speak a little Ducth also, but english is my mother tongue. It is a very difficult language to learn, especially the grammar. There are only two countries in the world where this language is used, Holland and the Netherland Antilles.
